Life as a first time mum
21 October 2003I had lunch with a girlfriend in some groovy cafe in the city.
I ate a delicious spinach quiche and salad.
My 6 month Callum entertained himself with a metal teaspoon.
We talked about french manicures, brazillian waxes, children’s tv, swearing in front of babies and change-room etiquettes.
I also managed to squeeze in a bit of shoe shopping.
Then we went to visit my mum and dad.
My dad entertained Callum with an array of musical instruments : a guitar, piano, organ, harmonica, and a tin can.
Callum and I watched Shrek on DVD. He certainly didn’t understand any of it. We just zoned out and rested for a bit.
Then we chased the chickens around the backyard.
And spied on a family of ducks paddling in the pool.
We caught bugs.
We watered my mother’s orchids.
And we both had an hour nap.
After all that, we drove home - stopping to buy some rice.
Andrew was home early!
We drove to the river for a nice stroll in the evening.
We got home just in time to feed, bath and put Callum to bed.
I made baked crumbed fish fillets and a salad for dinner.
*I felt so healthy*
I watched TV.
Andrew did some work on the computer.
It was a very satisfying day.
